More Art Work

Well just post anything you have drwn or painted, burned, carved, sculpted or anything else. Well here is my feeble attempt at GIMP for the first time. Please if you comment on someone's art, don't be harsh. It's called constructive criticism. This is supposed to be Leonidas from 300. I'm still working on it so please comment. I would say that the most noticeable thing it the pixelation of the head dress. I will go over it with the airbrush to smoothen it up.

How did you make that?

GIMP. If you don't know what it is, it's like photoshop.
Sunbanks in reply to heavy.metal.nguyenFeb 20, 2008. 5:15 PM
Did you do the whole thing in GIMP?
heavy.metal.nguyen (author) in reply to SunbanksFeb 20, 2008. 5:30 PM
Yeah, but I cheated and traced every single line with the pencil tool. However, I did paint it all myself.
Sunbanks in reply to heavy.metal.nguyenFeb 20, 2008. 5:36 PM
Wow.
heavy.metal.nguyen (author) in reply to SunbanksFeb 20, 2008. 5:37 PM
Wow that I traced all the line? That part took about two hours or two and a half hours.

wait, so you didnt just vectorize a pic of leonidus? impressive! allt he art forums need to be bunched together, theres like 3 now... or perhaps one for sculpting, one for flat craft and one for computer...
Sunbanks in reply to heavy.metal.nguyenFeb 20, 2008. 5:38 PM
You should see me trying to trace the line!

How long did it take you?
KentsOkay in reply to heavy.metal.nguyenFeb 21, 2008. 4:12 AM
Ehh... 3 or 4 hours I'd say...

Did you make it or are you just painting it?
Sunbanks in reply to heavy.metal.nguyenFeb 20, 2008. 5:14 PM
Just painting it.
heavy.metal.nguyen (author) in reply to SunbanksFeb 20, 2008. 5:30 PM
Gotcha.
Sunbanks in reply to heavy.metal.nguyenFeb 20, 2008. 5:37 PM
What?
heavy.metal.nguyen (author) in reply to SunbanksFeb 20, 2008. 5:48 PM
You don't now what gotcha is? It's like I get it.
Sunbanks in reply to heavy.metal.nguyenFeb 20, 2008. 5:55 PM
Haha whoops! I'm kinda out of it today.
Goodhart in reply to SunbanksFeb 20, 2008. 6:39 PM
You aren't the only one.....I think I have mistaken almost everything I have replied to tonight in one way or another, and if I didn't miss take it, I totally warped it beyond recognition LOL
Sunbanks in reply to GoodhartFeb 20, 2008. 6:59 PM
Not getting enough sleep sure changes a lot of things, when I saw the topic "John Cleese's "Letter To America"" I thought it said "Join Cheese's Letter To America" I've been very tired lately.
Goodhart in reply to SunbanksFeb 20, 2008. 7:03 PM
Exactly ! I saw that one on Cloing Ethics and at first imagined it was about Clowning Ethics *shrug*
Sunbanks in reply to GoodhartFeb 20, 2008. 8:29 PM
I thought it was about Clothing Ethics...

Hey Goodhart, sorry I kind of went on a rant a little while ago.
Goodhart in reply to heavy.metal.nguyenFeb 20, 2008. 6:45 PM
No, no problem. Really I would rather know if I have misspoken. This has been a very weird night for me to be sure. Half of my posts to people have been spelling corrections and apologies LOL
heavy.metal.nguyen (author) in reply to GoodhartFeb 20, 2008. 6:48 PM
So about 3,250 posts of apologies and spelling corrections. That still leaves the other half open to EVERYTHING else. Wow, that's a lot of posts seriously. Oh and by the way, do you look at a lot of the instructables or are you on the forums most of the time?
Goodhart in reply to heavy.metal.nguyenFeb 20, 2008. 7:02 PM
I am normally on at work, so I am in the forums a lot. I do look over some of the instructables, when I am looking for something specific

What does it mean besides someone getting stabbed?
its a lion in reply to heavy.metal.nguyenFeb 20, 2008. 8:54 PM
It's the symbol that is displayed when someone gets stabbed in the back by a Spy on Team Fortress 2. Got bored, and decided to make a wallpaper with the symbol.
